Flexible Retirement Income Planning Strategies and the Role of Fixed Index Universal Life Insurance Policies

Besides providing a death benefit to safeguard your family, FIUL offers a valuable tool for bolstering your retirement plan by potentially accumulating tax-deferred value. Accessible through policy loans or withdrawals, any accrued cash value can serve multiple purposes. 

For retirees, it is a financial resource to navigate fluctuations in living expenses or unforeseen costs, bridging the disparity between retirement savings and goals.

Positively impact your retirement income and safeguard your assets with a well-suited strategy

Retirement is when an individual ceases to engage in paid employment and starts receiving funds from Social Security, pensions, or other retirement savings plans.

Retired individuals represent a large and growing proportion of the U.S. population. In the 2023 Gallup poll, only 43%, less than half of non-retired adults, anticipate being financially comfortable in retirement.

What is Fixed Index Universal Life Insurance

Fixed Index Universal Life Insurance can help you achieve your financial goals. It protects your loved ones and bridges the gap between retirement savings and income. The policy protects death benefits and allows you to grow tax-deferred accumulation value. You can access the accumulated value later through policy loans or withdrawals.
